As of 30-Jul, Quest Capital Markets Ltd is experiencing a decline in its stock price, currently at Rs 368.00, reflecting a decrease of Rs 7.0 or 1.87%. The stock has underperformed its sector by 1.97% today, having touched an intraday low of Rs 360, which is a 4% drop. Additionally, Quest Capital is trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, indicating a bearish trend. Despite a recent increase in institutional investor participation, with a 2.57% rise in their stake, the company has shown weak long-term fundamental strength, evidenced by an average Return on Equity (ROE) of only 2.42% and a concerning annual growth rate of net sales at 6.87%. The stock's performance over the past year has also been poor, with a return of -6.84% and a decline in profits by 2.6%.

In the broader market context, Quest Capital's short-term performance has been relatively better than the benchmark, with a 1-week return of +0.68% compared to the Sensex's -1.50%. However, the stock's year-to-date performance is significantly worse, showing a decline of 25.37% against the Sensex's gain of 4.28%. This underperformance in the long term, coupled with the stock's expensive valuation relative to its peers, contributes to a negative outlook, leading to a perception of it being a strong sell. Overall, while there are some positive indicators such as increased institutional interest, the fundamental weaknesses and recent price movements suggest a challenging environment for Quest Capital.
